In order for everything we do on the internet to be recorded, information needs to be stored somewhere, and that place is a data center. The main problem these centers have is that they generate a lot of heat while they work and to avoid damage they need a different way to cool them. Today we just learned about the newest strategy for this, the most sustainable and beneficial so far.

Data centers are constantly collecting, analyzing and generating information so that any digital product, be it a service, platform or application, functions properly. Therefore consumes a lot of electricitylatere translates to hot once they give off and consume energy and if you don’t regulate the temperature these centers can overheat and rupture.

It has made everyone the data center has cooling equipment, either by a fan or by being brought to a cold place. The problem is that the centers not only consume a lot of electricity while they are running, but also they also consume energy when coolingwhich makes it a very unsustainable and expensive practice.

However, British start-up Deep Green has come up with a solution that is more ecological than the current one, but that best benefits not only the companies that manage the data, but now also loves indoor public swimming pools in Great Britain.

And one of the major problems of these closed pools is that they need to keep the water at a warm temperature so appetizing to bathe. It presupposes every investment center thousands of euros for heaters and other equipment which is completely unprofitable for public institutions, and therefore the idea of ​​Deep Green can be very successful.

This start up plan is put a mini data center in the same sports center as a public swimming poolso that the heat given off by this equipment is transferred to the exchanger which serves to heat the water.

According to data from BBCsince 2019 more than 65 public pools have been closed due to the huge increase in energy costs, in turn, one of the highest costs these data centers have is dissipating the heat they give off.

So, putting the two burning issues together, is how Deep Green manages to kill two birds with one stone. use the heat given off by these centers to heat water from the pond. There are already seven sports centers implementing this method and all of them seem to indicate that it represents a Big save energy and money.
